Alejandro Nuñez
Hitting scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Given the current tool set, Nuñez projects best as a bat-first, versatile second baseman who can move around the infield and potentially shuttle between Triple-A and the majors. The most realistic path to a roster spot is as an up-down utility option who offers left-handed contact, some baserunning value, and adequate defense at second with emergency reps elsewhere. For him to push beyond that, he would need either a clear jump in impact contact against upper-level pitching or a notable improvement in on-base skills to offset merely average pop. Limited physical projection means most gains will have to come from approach, defensive refinement, and maximizing his existing athleticism. Overall, he fits more in the high-minors depth bucket with an outside chance to carve out a role player niche if everything clicks.
